“Suzanne did an excellent job with our three cats. We met in advance and introduced her to them. She cared for them so well that I was able to enjoy time with my family and not worry. Her ability to visit multiple times a day ensured our senior girls received all their meds in a timely manner. I highly recommend her and would use her again!”
“Alexis was very patient with my timid cat, and got her to eat (a previously incomplete feat by other sitters). She has excellent communication, lots of pictures, and very thorough updates.”
“Mandy was wonderful with my two cats while I was away for the holidays. They usually don’t feel comfortable around unfamiliar people. However they warmed up to Mandy quickly! I appreciated Mandy’s prompt communication and thoughtful care.”
“Camryn was amazing 🥲! She took so many pictures and cared for my babies just like I would. Meet and greet made me more than relieved to be leaving my cats in good hands. Would absolutely book her again and have already recommended her to others.”

About: Hello! My name is Kayla, I work a typical M-F 8-5 but can take your pet for walks or do check ins during my lunch break as well, I’m free most weekends, I’m a perfectionist and detail oriented. No matter the task, I’m always willing to help out, simply ask away! Whatever you need, I gotchu! I work Monday thru Friday 8-5 but have an hour lunch break I can take anytime between 11 to 1. I am free most weekends too! I can be very active with your pet or have a relaxing cuddle day, whatever your pet is in the mood for or whatever you need from me.
About: I can't remember a time in my house that we didn't have at least one dog snoozing in the sun somewhere. When I was a kid I was less the caregiver and more the wrestling and tag partner, but I watched my mother raise two dogs from puppies with equal parts love and discipline, and rescue a third off the racetrack who could barely walk on linoleum floors without shaking with anxiety. Dogs are the most welcoming, forgiving, nonjudgmental living things anyone could share a home with. I would like to help keep home feeling like home even when the pooch's parents are away. I'm used to every energy level, from border collie to greyhound, and every size. I have experience with all ages, from puppy to oldie, and whatever degree of discipline an owner could want or a dog could need. I want to keep things as stable for your pets as possible. I am very flexible at the moment. Weekends, weekdays, mornings, evenings and overnights are all possible, as well as drop-ins, walks and play sessions. Anything you need to keep your pet happy. I offer whatever care the owners ask of me; the more I can make your pets feel like you aren't even away, the better. I can drop in for feeding times and walks, or I can spend the majority of my time with your animals if you feel that would be preferable for their wellbeing.

I am currently in my senior year at Bloomsburg University; I have a flexible class schedule, so I am able to care for your pets whenever needed! I care for pets in their own home, where they are most comfortable. I follow all owner instructions closely and am happy to brush, give treats, etc. I have experience walking dogs of all sizes and prioritize their safety by sticking to routines, following instructions, and using proper leash control.
“Lisa was great with our puppies for a few drop-in visits while we were out of town for the day. She kept in contact when she was at our house and provided updates with how the puppies were doing along with some pictures. We got back late, so she even checked the next morning to make sure they were okay when we got home which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Lisa for all of your dog sitting needs! Thank you so much, Lisa!!”

Cierra has taken care of our cats on 2 separate occasions now and has done absolutely great. She even helped me out with something last minute. I always appreciate the updates on our kitties from her while we are gone. Our very shy cat has started warming up to her which is awesome. Thanks Cierra!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
